    Addicted? Startup WoW directly when computer starts! :)

    Ok so basiscly, you're so addicted that you can't turn on the computer for anything but wow, or simply want the game to run when you start up the system!

    Here's how to do it... On Windows XP.

    Step 1: Locate your WoW Folder.
    The folder is usually
    Code:
    C:\Programs\World of Warcraft
    Step 2: Press the Start Menu (Windows Button on your keyboard), click on "Run"

    Step 3: In the tiny console known as "Run" type in regedit.
    This will open the registry editor (dangerous stuff, do not edit randomly).

    Step 4: Go to
    Code:
    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run
    Step 5: Right-click > New > String Value.
    Name the new string WoWStartup.

    Step 6: Right-click WoWStartup > Modify.

    Step 7: In Value Data, type in your WoW Folder and wow.exe like this with "quotes"...
    Code:
    "C:\Program\World of Warcraft\WoW.exe"
    OH DOES IT WORK NOW?: Check if you did it right!
    Press the Start Menu, Run. Type in msconfig and go to Startup tab. If you find wow there, you made it! Make sure the checkbox is marked!

    If you feel like a smart and intelligent being, you can do the same with any program. Be careful doing it with glider though. I am.

    Yeah, but then you're not as cool as I am, and I am really really cool.
